“Miss Elena .”
“That’s enough!”
Elena Bush sternly interrupted his attempted admonition, “Go back to the Ford and say nothing more!”
Her attitude was firm and determined, not giving anyone else the slightest chance.
The butler had no choice but to continue to focus on the drive, and every now and then auntie Julie’s low sobbing could be heard from the car.
The sound of her voice, which was already hoarse and unpleasant, combined with her sobs, was like a ghost in the dead of night.
the Ford
Elena Bush was carried cautiously into the living room by the housekeeper.
At the slightest movement, the man on the sofa immediately picked up a vase and slammed it down, shouting, “Didn’t I tell you no one was allowed in here?”
“Bang!”
The vase flew over and in the next instant it seemed to hit Elena Bush in the face as she stood there frozen, her hands subconsciously clutching her stomach.
“Ah!”
She shuddered and opened her eyes to see that the butler who had been beside her had somehow stepped in front of her to block the vase for her.
The blood snapped and dripped to the floor and was fainted away again ……
The first thing that happened to her was that she was shocked and did not dare to cry out.
The butler held his forehead and forced out a smile, “Mr. Ford, I have brought Miss Elena back.”
Edward Ford looked behind the housekeeper and saw Elena Bush hiding behind him, the look made his face sink again and he said in a commanding tone, “Elena, come to me!”
“No!” She refused without even thinking about it.
No one would want to be around a man who looked like a madman at the moment, and besides, she was a pregnant woman ……
She couldn’t even believe what would have happened to her if that vase had hit her.
Elena Bush gritted her teeth and clenched her palms, clasping the butler’s arm backwards without even looking at Edward Ford, “auntie Julie, go and get Dr Thomas, I’ll stop the bleeding for now.”
Auntie Julie woke up at the sound of Elena Bush’s voice and turned and ran for the phone.
Edward Ford was ignored, and by now had a sinister look on his face, “Elena Bush, I’m talking to you, do you hear me!”
“Edward Ford! You hurt someone and not a word of apology, not even an attitude like that!?” She raised her eyes and yelled down at him with equal nonchalance.
“What?”
Edward Ford could hardly believe that Elena Bush had reacted in such a way, he rushed to her and pulled her away from the butler, “Elena Bush, do you know what you are talking about? How dare you think less of me than even this servant?”
Why should she take care of the housekeeper first and not consider his mood?
Elena Bush pulled the corners of her mouth? her eyes full of sarcasm, “I’m sorry, in my eyes there is no one higher or lower between you, life is more equal, you hurt someone, the butler took care of that vase for me, shouldn’t I care for him?”
“That’s what he asked for!” Edward Ford gritted his teeth.
“Did he?” She raised an eyebrow, clearly not surprised, “So, in your eyes, maybe you’re happy that I’m the one who’s hurt right now?”
Edward Ford then realised he had said the wrong thing and said with a flash of panic, “I didn’t mean it like that, I just thought ……”
“Just thought it would be okay if the person who got hurt was the butler?” Elena Bush was aggressive and didn’t back down in the slightest.
The steward watched the sabre rattling between the two men and was instantly alarmed along with them.
He smiled as he pushed down his discomfort and said to Elena Bush, “Miss Elena, I’m fine, it just seems a little serious.”
“You don’t have to speak for him!” Elena Bush cut him off without even thinking, “Edward Ford is the one at fault and he should apologise to you whether you’re badly hurt or not!”
Edward Ford was fuming with jealousy as he listened to her words.
He grabbed her arm as he did so, a dark glint in the bottom of his eyes, “And you?”
“Me?” Elena Bush’s arm was raw from his squeeze and she couldn’t control the frown.
“Right! You’re saying all the wrong things about me, what about yourself?” Edward Ford pursued in a hushed voice.
Elena Bush shook his hand off hard, “I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong myself.”
“And you dare say you didn’t!” Edward Ford almost hated the way she always pretended not to care in front of him, the mere sight of her reminded him inexplicably of Logan Brown!
The hand that had just been shaken free clamped down on her shoulder again, “Elena Bush, I promised you freedom of movement, but I didn’t promise you freedom to see Logan Brown!”
Damn it, not only had she gone to see Logan Brown without his knowledge, she was even thinking of leaving with him!
“It was just a coincidence!” Elena Bush couldn’t look good at his unreasonable words, “Edward Ford, as I said, I have no idea what the hell is going on, I just went to the cemetery and he happened to be praying for his mother.”
“And did you know he would be there before you went? If not, why did you make a point of going to such an isolated place?”
Edward Ford was determined that she had made a special trip and wouldn’t listen to anything at all.
Elena Bush grinned, just finding it simply incomprehensible, and just spread her hands, “In that case, whatever you think.”
“That’s your default, isn’t it?” Edward Ford clasped her wrist and pressed her word for word.
Elena Bush didn’t even think about trying to break free again, but found that this time Edward Ford was smarter than anyone else, and the force had increased so much that she couldn’t break free.
“Edward Ford, you’re unbelievable!” She snarled with hatred.
Edward Ford smiled coldly at her, “Unbelievable? I’ll show you if I’m unreasonable or if you’re just too willful!”
“What are you going to do?” Elena Bush was immediately on alert.
Edward Ford’s grip on her hand tightened, his face equally grim and frightening.
His eyes fell on the butler who stepped aside with an intimidation he couldn’t deny, “Get the hell out of here! No one is allowed in here, no matter who it is!”
The butler immediately sensed that something was wrong when he heard the meaning of the words.
He got up and stood in front of Elena Bush, “Mr Ford, don’t be impulsive, I can talk to Miss Elena, I can talk to her.”
Edward Ford gave him a cold look, “If you say another word, I’ll rip your mouth off right now!”
Elena Bush subconsciously squeezed her palms together, her brows furrowed.
